Hello, I just tried to import an old course so that I could use some assignments again from last year. However, even though the status shows that the import has completed, there are no materials in the new course. Can anyone help troubleshoot?
First you might try double checking to make sure that you are importing the correct course and semester. We import all of the online courses for our college. Occasionally we choose a course either from the same semester we are in, or a future semester, neither of which has content yet. So the import appears to be working correctly, but there was nothing in the initial course to import.
The other possibility is with the settings. You are given the option to import all content or choose specific content. If you select the choose specific content you will get a second window which will require you to select each item you want to import, and then import the content.
If neither of those options are helpful, you might try exporting the course that you want to import as a course file, and then importing the course file, rather than importing from the course.
If none of those options work you'll have to contact support. You should have a ?/help button in your course. They can look at your specific situation. Good luck!
Hi there @RaginiShah ,
Thanks for reaching out on the Instructure Community!
This can happen sometimes. Depending on the size of the course upload, it can take a long time for everything to appear. I just want to verify -- did you happen to see any alerts or warnings aside from it saying it was completed? Sometimes things can't be imported correctly, and it needs you to review certain things.
Let us know so we can provide you with our best insight!Noah

It is possible to import tags or other metadata when importing in a QTI file? I've tried everything I can think of, but it seems to get stripped out every time. Are any metadata types allowed? I can bring in a batch of tags questions or manually tag each one. Tagging each one is not an option. I'm using New Quizzes, so I…
I'm testing whether Mastery Paths can be used to give students early access to an item based on their score, while making the same item available to everyone else on a later date. Here is my setup: A 4-point assignment is the source for the Mastery Path. Students scoring 75–100% are assigned a Solutions item. The Solutions…
I am a physics teacher at a high school. I love to use the random generation of formula questions to give each student a unique quiz/test. However, units in physics are extremely important. In the past I have also used Moodle as an LMS and they included a feature that could grade the units listed after the numerical…
